Why the fuck did your dumb ass install a fucking app for a website you can easily navigate and access?
Is that actually their app? It looks like a poorly designed PWA.
Every time you see "try it in our app!"
a poor developers soul was sacrificed to make a PWA.
They're not too hard to make. The service worker is most of the effort imo.
Most frameworks it's relatively free
I let you in on a secret.. I actually think they're really neat, just really not useful for the applications most prevalent (news sites, etc. where you likely want to be online anyway)... but that's got me thinking a wiki PWA would be sweet to cache articles.. and that is all I can think of lol
they can still help improve perceived startup time by caching layout, CSS, and some static pages.
Program with attitude?
in case you aren't joking: Progressive Web App. Something apple doesn't like much now
Websites can never request this data.
